Default 66 Mustang rough idle

I purchased this Mustang last Aug.
Has ran fine. It sat over winter, except for starting every other week to let idle and circulate oil.
Yesturday I took it for a drive and it wants to idle rough or maybe too low? It almost dies at idle in park and when in gear when I stop. Could it just be the fuel filter. Doesn't have points, as it has been upgraded. Put new plugs in gapped at 34. Could the timing have gotten off by sitting through winter? I'm going to have the timing checked. Any help would be much appreciated. ;-) MMac
