you might try looking for an allen screw that holds the knob on, and in some of the older vehicles there is a button on the bottom of the switch that will allow you to remove the push=pull rod, once that is out you should be able to turn the entire switch to remove it, holding the lock nut of course.

that is how it works on my 67 international pickup, not very familiar with that old of a chevy car though.

Eric,

My old '58 Chevy had the button on the switch body... Pull the headlight switch all the way out, reach under the dash and you should be able to feel the little spring loaded button on the switch. I can't remember if it's on the bottom or top, but find it, push it in as you pull out on the stem, the stem should come all the way out... Might want to disconnect the battery first...

Hope this helps.
