Next time you're out driving it, bring a DMM. When it dies, check the voltage at the coil. I'll bet you a beer the coil is internally shorted---these only fail when they get hot. If you have a horizontally mounted coil, I'll bet you a six-pack of ice-cold Spaten Optimator that it's the coil.
This has happened to me---twice---on two separate, non-Cobra vehicles.
