My 1964 convertible acts like it is running out of gas, but I drained the tank and have about 6 to 8 gallons of gas in tank. The pick-up looks in good condition. In the process of checking fuel filter and pump. Any other suggestions as to what might be the problem. Thanks.

Rust plugging up the filter? How new are the tank/lines/filters? These things ARE 40 years old; that's the first things I'd look at/replace. Next on my list would be a faulty pump and maybe a carb rebuild, but that's going a bit far for a first guess. A lot more info (eg. when it does this, and how it acted before, and car info) would be a great help.

PS: There were no '64s; and technically no 64.5s if you asked Ford....is this a 64.5?

Yes, this is a 64.5. The car was running fine, then it just quit. No sputter or anything, just died and would not start again. Happened once before, but I thought I was out of gas and put gas in and it took right off. So didn't think much of it. The tank looks clean and I just replaced filter and rubber parts of gas line.

Sounds like you might want to take a look at the carb. I had mine freeze up on me up in the mountians, it could be as simple as a stuck float as well.
