I can not say for sure on the 79 but as a general rule GM did not document option combination. That means even half way through the 79 year GM could not tell you how many t-top 4 speed cars they sold. You can get numbers on how many 4 speed cars they sold and how many t-tops they sold just not on how many with those combined options. There are web sites out there that try to estimate combination. IMO not very accurate.
In 78 the t-tops really ramped up, Just because I was a big camaro fan boy back then I know that the 79 t-top Z28, 4 speed was a very common car. I can not remember seeing a berlinetta 4 speed although T-top/Automatic bernadetta where very common. The berlinetta was not really marketed as performance model so the lack of manuals is not surprising.

T tops
In another post I was carrying on about why 6th gen or 5th gen didn't have T-Tops. It would really bring me back.
I had a 78 Berlinetta 350. It was a great cruiser but had the 2 barrell carb. I don't know how many 78 or 79 cars had T tops as options because GM didn't keep records right. Sorry man. See, if GMwas smart we should be able to get a brand new T-Top Camaro.
