This is one of the things I was wondering about. So the window is supposed to slide back, then down, and back into the guide (which I've been calling the channel)? It did seem that it needed to move back further, but even without using the regulator, I couldn't get it far enough back to clear the top of the guide.

I read a post by Dick Spadaro that said if the window was replaced and not to exact factory specs, there could be issues. That would make sense, but I still think it's more of an issue with how it's functioning.

I suppose a good question would have been, "How exactly does the window mechanism in a '35 5 window work?"
