list, and whether they are similar or compatible with the wheels used on
the Austin-Healey 100S.  Both seem to be a similar wheel style as used also
on the De Luxe.  Does anyone know whether they used the same wheels?  Are
there any reproductions being made?  If so by whom?

The MGA DeLuxe is essencially a MGA Twin Cam car with a pushrod engine.
Virtually all of the chassis parts are identical, including the wheels.  I
have no idea if they fit the Healey, but it's a good guess.  I think these
wheels are not available new anywhere these days, but good luck with the
hunt anyway.
