Cordts,
A couple of things come to mind. As far as I know, a 1967 911S came with the auxiliary heater as standard. Perhaps the heater was removed at some point in the past and the switch remained, just to fill the hole in the dash. Perhaps you should look in the trunk and trace where the wires go.
A '67 had the plastic knobs with a chrome base. The rubber covered knobs started in 1968, for US cars. ROW cars didn't have the additional rubber covering because they were added to satisfy safety requirements here in the US only. Ditto for the symbols.
Looking at the switch with the black plastic base, it's possible that you are looking at a part that was replaced at some point in the car's life. That looks like an earlier switch.
If the car were mine, I'd look in the smuggler's box to see if there was evidence of a gas heater ever having been fitted. If I was positive that one had never been there, then I'd trace the wires from the switch.
Personally, I'm still betting on the gas heater.
