Default not so bright headlights

it has been twenty years since i have had my last vette , but the long dry spell is over and now i have to go to work and make it look new. the wife and i took her out the other day , and when it started to get dark i turned the lights on and everthing worked for a while. then the lights would cut on and off and and flicker back and forth. so is the problem in the headlight switch or maybe the dimmer, or could it be a nasty old short.
