                        Welcome to the forums!

                        SF i believe one of said forgotten window glues would be Testors clear parts cement and window maker. i use it and it works fine, but yes any regular white glue will do the trick, CA type glues will craze (haze and possible warp) clear plastic and should be avoided like the ex wife.

                        Welcome to the forums. We love lots of pics on here, what ever your building. And ditto for the clear parts. I use Microscale Krystal Clear, but any white glue should do.

                        Welcome to the forums!

                        Regardless for the order (I prefer installing glass last) Use white wood glue for the clear plastic as it will not 'craze' or 'fog' it. There are special adhesives available yet they escape my memory at this time (early morning... need a few more coffee's to kick in)Coffee

                        Been putting together Revell models every few years ever since I was a teenager in the 1990s. I've had some good looking models and some crappy ones due to missing pieces or pieces that just wouldnt stay on.

                         

                        Currently I've been putting together the Beatnik Bandit which I got for Christmas this past December 2010.. the body chassis is a pain since I had to glue the rear axle and front axle to connect the right and left side of the body chassis. Then comes the hard part of putting on the stuff for the wheels on the axles.

                        and I dunno whether to glue the damn bubble glass window frame to the body of the car or not.

                         

                        Whenever i get done with that model I'm gonna go and buy myself one of those snaptite models or something. They're less of a mess LOL
