Starter might be getting "heat soaked", and can't crank until it cools down.

Could also be electronic. Probably heat related. It's a pretty old car. My '95 Bonneville started doing weird stuff near the end of its life which seemed to be heat/computer related. Never did figure it out. After the whole snowstorm, pickup truck, I-thought-you-were- moving incident it didn't seem to matter anymore.
