Headlight Issue

Hey folks,
I've finally bought an Alfa ('71 GTV 1750), but of course like every car, it has its quirks. Unfortunately, the headlights are a little testy. According to the PO, most of the time they don't work, and if you try to turn them on while you're driving it kills the car. He did however mention that shaking (tapping?) the fuse box had some effect on getting them to work, but who knows. I'm going to pick it up in about a week and a half and I've been trying to think of every possible quick-fix to implement before I drive the car back to Chicago (it's in Virginia). Any ideas? I know it may seem ridiculous to ask without knowing more about the car, but even suggesting possible reasons for the problem could be helpful.
Thanks,
Josh
