As described here: /vehicle_129247-Capri-1977.html Though this one is missing the gold wheels, alloys were optional, but these do not look original: https://www.flickr.com/photos/daveseven/5374548516/sizes/l

Replacements here do not look like any recognisable Capri option from Europe, but I've no idea what choices were offered in US. I'm sure dealers quickly provided a wide range of choices in the circumstances ....
