2 door but the top doesn't come off? Is it some sort of hybrid or prototype that survived??

It is neat in a freaky sort of way.

Toyota imported 2 doors like that for a few years. The import tariff was different for them than the 4 doors so they stopped importing them (I suspect that they didn't sell as well as a 4 door that was probably almost equally priced).

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_4Runner

Nearly all second generation 4Runners were 4-door models; however, from 1989 to 1992, a 2-door model was also produced. These models are similar to the 4-door models of the time in that the bodies were formed as a single unit, instead of the fiberglass tops used in the first-generation 4Runners. Two-door 4Runners from this era are extremely rare, and were discontinued in August 1992, probably due to higher importation duties and owner insurance costs.

If you look real close at the pics it looks like it has some rust issues on the rear quarter panel around the upper wheel well lip.
I love the rare 2doors and it would have made a nice sister truck to my '93 pickup but, I got a smokin' deal recently on a '97 SR5 4Runner so I guess I'll let this one pass.
