"Little Black" started to misbehave. when i backed out of the driveway, she died, it was early so i just assumed i let the clutch go too fast. i tried to restart the car and nothing happened

I replaced the ignition coil today and that seem to have fixed the problem. It also makes sense. coming off of idle the ALT is not making full power and has a hard time supplying juice to the make spark. as the engine heated up the coil gets warm and changes resistance thus making the spark weaker than what is required, hence the stalling out. Hopefully this can help someone else in the future.
