You have an intermittent connection to the headlights. You will need to check every connection on the wires that send power to the headlights. I would first chech the ground wire at the headlights and see that the headlight socket is fully seated. You might jiggle the headlight switch to test for its connections.

There is an excellent article in VETTE Mag., couple of months ago, on how to repair these headlights.
Can't remember which month. Wait I found it. The March issue of Vette Mag., page 56.
Find this issue, or go to thier web site.
Hope this helps you.
Good Luck
