Mystery control.

Having a poke around the interior of the GTV last night I came across this knob next to the choke:

Now its been a few years since I drove a car with a choke, but I don't think I've ever seen anything like this before. Anyone got any ideas what it is for?

Its a pull out knob like the choke.

Excellent, 1970's cruise control. Not sure how much that will get used to be honest.
