I think. it would be the knobs on each side of the parking brakes(if they are still there in that year) pull them both up (i think) while the motor is on and you should get warm air to come out. You probably CAN'T turn it on, unless:
the heater boxes, which are sheet metal pieces wrapped around the cast-iron exhaust manifolds, are intact
the control levers on the sides of the heater boxes are there, the butterfly valve they control is there, and the cable running to the lever is there, intact and connected at both ends
the hoses connecting the heater channels to the heater boxes are there and intact
the heater channels don't have any holes in them

and even if all that stuff is right, you STILL don't get much heat out of them!
