I've seen maybe 5 or 6 chopped (and some bobbed) like that online. Google and you'll find lot's of ideas, pics and buildups.
Another idea is to move up the rear window/ glass/ gate. Basically, remove the side glass between the last door and back of the truck. Hard to describe and visualize I know... but you end up with a mini-bed and a roll down rear window just behind the back seats.
My 2nd Gen may go this way some day. I agree, it's a cool idea and a different look.

I was planning on doing that to mine here really soon. Whoever tryed to weld on the roof after mine had been rolled did a bad job, so I figured I will just chop off the back just like that one. Then once thats done I can mount a fuel cell in the back.
I would like to know where he got that top though, thats exactly what I'm looking for. Don't want to cut the roof until I can recover it.

What, you guys have something against shiny 17x9 rims?
I'm curious what he's running for diffs under that thing. Those are 8 bolt wheels, and you can tell by the width, and the front hubs he isn't using 6->8 bolt adapters. 1 ton diffs under a 4Runner...hehe I smell a Dana 60!

^ yeah, it has Dana 60's, moser 35 spline axles, 39.5x12.5x 17" crawlers, arb locker in front, spool in the rear... I don't like the color combo but that could be changed.
Heres another chopped 4runner...

*Sigh* if only I had the money - oh and my ring and pinion fixed to get this chop done. It's gonna happen some-day. As TC says at $430 per rear window (plus the tailgate window not working) it sure makes a lot of sense to do a chop!
Thanks for the heads up Rocket!
