OMG - What a car
Unbelieveable 4 Cam Carrera 2:
1962 356 Carrera 2 Very fine gauges. Anyone know what annular braking is? And what are the two black knobs above the radio for?

Is it just disk brakes? I can't find anything on it.

Seems to be a sub category of disc type brakes. THe U.S. Patent office mentions it as a categort 71.4 on their site.

I googled it, and I think it's just a fancy name for disk brakes I think in this case it referes to the really funky looking wide-5 disk brakes.

Is one a cigarete lighter and the other a pull starter like my MGA had?
I once saw 4 of those motors being rebuilt in the same shop. Amazing motors.

They could be fresh air intake regulators, but did VW's like 356's have those? I'm not a 356 expert as you can tell, sorry.

Like my MGA that key start looks just like it is an off/on switch to provide electricity to the ignition system. To actually engage the starter you pulled on that knob.
Who knows for sure?

Cigarette lighter and headlamp or driving lights switch?
My 67 MGB had a pull type switch for the headlights and I can't see one anywhere else on the dash, but then it could be one of the ones hidden behind the steering wheel.

It would look better with the bumpers and the jewelry removed.
