Try another cap, and rotor.
change the condenser ,
put new fuel in
One thing I found on one of my misfire problems was the little brass straps that connect the points to the round low tension contact were bent out of shape and one was shorting out on the steel part the points spring screw goes into.

Thanks for you insights.
I did replace the sparkplugs checking the gap on all first.
I have just ordered new distributor caps (inner and outer) boots and wires.
I did replace the condenser. Didn't help.
I even checked those little brass straps you mention when I was installing the new distributor and bent them away to make sure they didn't touch ground.
