need to know how to look for a real abody 4 speed car

Torque boxes are standard on the front and rear of convertibles, but rear torque boxes are pretty much standard on manual equipped a-Body's. There are a few out there with both torque boxes on hardtops like my 69 383 4-speed GTS.

Maybe true for some years but my 68, 4 speed has no torque boxes in any position. Original drivetrain and fender tag.
