I had a similar problem with mine and it was the condenser that was six months old. I hooked up a timing light and pointed it into the windshield. Running the engine in the garage I could see the spark fail as it bucked and died. 1951 GMC 1 Ton Flatbed -- It is finally on the road and what a great time I have driving it! 1951 1 Ton Completed My Chevy Master 4 Door is on the Road!
