That's the downlevel climate system. The standard car had dual zone semi automatic heat, you could add air conditioning (like that car had), and if you had large wad in your wallet to burn you could get the single zone fully automatic system (which is what all US spec cars have).

The semi automatic system would try to keep the temp coming out of the vents the same, but didn't control air direction or fan speed.
