Ok, I have checked all the fuses, checked for power at the switch, going in and coming out. Headlights come up but dont light up. Checked for power at the healights and there is nothing. I have power coming out of the switch but it doesnt make it to the light itself. Is there a relay or anything else I can check? I need to have headlights so I can drive at night, otherwise, its a daytime only car. What the hell good is that?

You say you have power comming out of the (headlight) switch. Pin #56 of the switch is where the power to the headlights comes from. If you don't have power at pin #56 (a RD/WH wire) then you don't have lights. If this is the case, a good temporary fix is to simply jumper pin #56 to pin #56K, everything will work like normal. I made this temporary fix on one of my 74 cars and it lasted for three years. Then I had to change the switch.
