Engine Wants to stall Under load

87 Iroc TPI

It idles fine. Twice now after about 30 mints of driving it suddenly wants to stall when trying to accelerate. The battery gauge drops down dead when it happens

On both occasions when kept driving the battery gauge comes back up in the middle and it drives fine.

Any ideas?

Loss of voltage to the ignition? Check battery and starter connections.
