Did these have have a self returning high-beam position when pulled 
towards the steering wheel, like the stalk on my 1984 GT5?

Some of which were imported into the US and pre-date the Mercury Capris, which were totally different cars.

Us Brits refer to 'turn signals' as 'indicators', so a search for 'Capri Ford Indicator' may get you further. I pulled up one for a MK2 or MK3 Capri, but Mk1 stuff is getting harder to find as the environment, agressive winter road salting and stringent MOT testing in the UK is hard on cars.
