There is no fuse panel or box on a 58-63 American. There is a fuse on the back of the headlight switch that is only for the interior lighting (dome light). The headlight switch itself contains two circuit breakers, one for head lights and one for tail lights. The brake lights and turn signals are protected by an external circuit breaker attached to the firewall behind the dash. It's a little rectangular metal box with two studs that fits in a clip under the dash. If all headlights or the tail lights are out, suspect the light switch. If no brake or turn lights the external circuit breaker. The light switch can be replaced with a generic unit, but make sure you install external fuses or circuit breakers in the lines. The headlight switch breaker is 18A for the headlights, 12A for the tail lights. I don't know if other makes had built in circuit breakers or not.
