plain 69

We are driving along and all of the sudden our 67 shuts off. Last time I looked we are having a good charge on the volt meter. I mean nothing worked period but the horn. I had to get a tow home.
Then I got under the car and pulled the starter and solenoid. Had that checked and replaced the solenoid and it started right up. I replaced the ends that are on the wiring to the starter just to be safe. It started and ran fine for about 2 weeks.
Then we are heading back from the local cruise and it quit on me again and done the same thing. I coasted into a parking lot and stopped. Hit the key and it started right up. I let it idle for a bit and checked the guages and everything was normal and then it quit again. I then turned the key back off and then on again and it started up again.
I am lost on this one. This car is an original 4-speed car so there is no neutral switch involved. Could it be an ignition switch going bad, whatever it is it is there is some major juice to this wire or component to shut everything down in the car. The car is grounded good as far as continuity goes with a meter.
The dome light, headlights, dashlights, brake lights, wipers, starter or anything has juice except the horn when it does it's little thing. I am up for suggestions????
