I don't know why, but after 1973, the rear quarter windows were fixed (non-functional) like you have on the red car. 

I don't know why they did it in '73, but later on the automakers claimed they were saving the weight of the mechanisms.  Cars like the 1978 Malibu 4 door sedans and wagons had non-functional side glass on the back doors.  That turned off a lot of buyers.  In that era I used to sell cars for people and a guy I worked with had a two year old Malibu wagon for me to sell.  I remember a couple of people declining to buy it because of those windows.
