1970 beetle..what do the two levers do next to the handbrake? are they both for the heat exchangers?

Answer:

In my 1971 super beetle the right leaver opens and closes the heat exchangers on the motor to allow heat into the car. The left lever controls the front windscreen defroster.
Yes they operate the right and left heat exchangers, pull for heat!
Yes. One is for the car heater, the other is for the windshield defrost. I forget which is which.
