If u can borrow battery from someone, get one and use it in ur car. If after a day or two and ur car is still running well, then ur battery is bad.

I think your kick starter is faulty , That's why it doesn't start when it's hot,
If the car rubs during starting when hot, it's surely the Starter motor aka kick starter

Put another battery in the car and test for a full day, if it doesn't run down,
Replace your battery

start the car, then remove the 2 battery terminals. If the car stop working then your alternator is bad.
