Default Recently Bought IFA W50, Need part recommendations

I recently bought what I believe to be a IFA W50 LA/A/C from GSA. GSA claimed it was a 1982 model UNIMOG. I'm attaching a couple of pictures, if anyone can further identify (or simply affirm I am correct about the make and model).

Also, I need to know where I might find parts information. I have looked into www.ifa-tours.de, but I can't seem to find a way to translate the site to english (My german is extremely rudimentary,)

Any help, suggestions, or information would be greatly appreciated.

Yup, it's an IFA.
Do a search for IFA here on the site, should be some good info.
I had one up until a few months ago, sold it after a job loss.
I was told that it had some systems (engine, air) in common with IVECO trucks, but I actually never had to
replace anything that I couldn't get at Pep Boys. Good luck, it's a beast.

Nice looking IFA project. Definitely not a Unimog. Goofy GSA. I love the view from your shop!!
