This may be stating the obvious, but I had the same thing happen to my car and found that it was rust chips in the fuel tank slowly clogging up the fuel pump intake and limiting the fuel supply.  Ran fine at first and then starved.  When I stopped, the flakes fell away from the intake and the car would start and run for a while, then stall out.  Fuel pressure and flow looked fine when I tested it, but it choked out while driving. 

Finally took the fuel tank out and had it coated.  No problems since. 

Then again, it might be the carbs.........
