Thanks to all who had suggestions! The problem turned out to be the 
contactor for the distributor clutch trip mechanism (the little 
ivory-colored contact arm just above the distributor clutch), which had 
been jolted just far enough towards the rear of the unit that it couldn't 
do its job. Amazingly, Vince Slyngstad picked out the cause in a single 
guess.  :)

I'm still running it through its paces, but so far it looks like the 
Teletype is in good shape. Thus far I'm still doing the Happy Dance.  :)

I've sent an e-mail your way. I'll take you up on this cheerfully.  :) 
Thanks again to all!
