Help!

I haven't done a thing to it since buying it. I was driving it the other week and for several days and miles with no problems. Then it just died on me while driving. I coasted into a vacant farm field and it wouldn't start. It just shut off while driving. I went back a couple of hours later and it fired right up and I got it back home. It wasn't too hot and I hadn't been in any stop and go traffic. I was thinking vapor lock? But I have never experienced it and unsure if that's the problem. I bought a new set of points, cap, rotor, and fuel filter. It had a new coil on it when I bought it. I haven't cleaned the carb or anything. Does it sound like vapor lock or something else?

Thanks.
