Is it the custom cab conversion which was done with the 2nd gen trucks?

Don't think that they are all that rare, don't see them much but they are out there.

Mitzubishi had a factory truck called the Space cab, but I have never heard of Toyota having one by that name.    Toyota had the Trekkar and Trailblazer(preludes to the 4-Runner )built on the 1st gen platform, and the Custom/King Cab built on the 2nd gen platform.  It could be a home built one-off rig.

Kind cab is a Nissan trademark.  The toyotas I've seen like brainless's were a custom cab upgrade, though there may have been others making them too.

Can you post some pics?  Was it done the same way the 2nd gens were done?

Yes I know that Datsun/Nissan called their large cab trucks King Cabs, but I have also seen the Custom Cabs called King Cabs.  If the conversion was done as a Toyota option like the Trailblazer and Trekkars were, the trademark rights would not necessarily apply, similar to Chevy using the name Trailblazer for a production model, whereas Toyota used it first as a conversion package.
