Welcome to the club!  It is the headlight relay vibrating at certain RPM's.
Everything is wired through the dash switch except the headlights
themselves.  They go through a relay mounted on the driver side inner
finder.

Remove the top of the relay.  Give the contacts a good cleaning.  They tend
to arc and pit while they are dancing around.  An emery board works well.
Then, lighten the tension on the spring just a bit.  A little goes a long
way here so go easy.  This should prevent the contacts from vibrating apart.

Best regards,
