weber carbs

I purchased a 1959 TR3A a couple of months ago.
A pair of downdraft Weber carbs had already been installed. When I first purchased it there was a flat spot when accelerating but it was livable. However, it has been getting worse and now after driving the car for 30 minutes or so the engine dies every time I stop for a stop sign. Any suggestions ??
 
Does your car have a fuel pressure regulator? The downdraft Webers on my '79 TR7 require 2 psi. It won't run right at higher or lower fuel pressure.
