Hmm, I  just had a thought - maybe I should change the condenser.  I seem 
to  remember when I was racing my Mini in England that a faulty condenser  
caused something quite similar to occur... Yes??  or no???

Jim - I am not a "quality control" engineer, but I read once the  chance of 
a condenser "going" bad was a lot less than getting a brand-new bad  one! 
Feel free to try a couple, though. That and the coil are easy enough swaps.  
When it is hot and cranks but won't start, are you getting a good spark out 
of  the coil to ground?
