were your dash lights on?

I've had a loose fuse...heads and tails were on...no sides/markers

rotate/spin your fuses in the sockets....I'll bet it's simple tarnish 
making a bad connection.

I should have mentioned I removed the fuses to check them and they were all fine. I did just "jiggle" all of them as well. 

I didn't check the panel light though. They do not work. Nor does the hazard switch. The idiot lights and interior lights work.

All the tail lights, parking lights, marker lights, and dash lights
are on the same fuse.  If there's no power to the fuse, I'd suspect
that funky headlight switch.

So, time for some detective work.  Get out a test lamp or DMM and check for
power at the RG wire at the fuse block (with the headlight switch on).  

If nothing there, check at the RG wire coming out of the switch.  Still
nothing means the switch is bad.

If RG has power, check at the red wires coming off the fuse block.  If no
joy here, then either the fuse is bad and doesn't look it, or the fuse block
has a problem.

Heres to hoping it is the wire or the newer fuse box. I don't know where I'd get a NOS headlight switch. 

Thanks,

Success!  And I dodged a bullet. I traced the wire to the fuse box and checked the fuse again. The fuse was intact. But, just for the heck of it, I swapped it it.  Now it works!  Prince of Darkness strikes again. 

Now for the hazard switch...

Thanks to all.
