Been over 30 years since I’ve done a model and my wife bought me one for Christmas. She had no idea that I had to paint everything and then put it together 🤣 I can’t believe I ever stopped doing this. The model is a Chevy Cameo (Coca-Cola). I’ll post finished pictures as well, as soon as I buy some cement. I assume Testors is still the way to go???IMG_1203.thumb.jpeg.0d9905861e6e7074bd814be1ece50f0a.jpeg

Welcome back to the hobby and to the forum Marcus.  There are a lot of different glues out there that will work.  Just a matter of personal preference.  I use the Extreme Power Medium glue from Hobby Lobby.

Welcome to the community, Marcus! For glue, the Testors 3501X (Orange Tube) is still a great glue for non-detail work, but takes quite a while to bond and cure. I am having really good experiences with Plastruct Bondene and Tamiya Extra Thin, which bond almost immediately and dry quickly. Can't wait to see your work!...
