                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                               SEPTEMBER 30, 2000


NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying financial statements, some of which are unaudited, have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements and should therefore be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Registrant's annual
report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary
to present fairly the partnership's financial position at September 30, 2000,
the results of operations and cash flows for the nine month periods ended
September 30, 2000 and 1999 have been included. Operating results for the three
and nine months ended September 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2000.

NOTE 2 - NET INCOME PER LIMITED PARTNERSHIP UNIT

Net income per limited partnership unit is based upon the weighted average
number of units outstanding during the periods presented, which amounted to
8,751 in 2000 and 1999.

Pursuant to the partnership agreement, annual partnership net income is
allocated one percent to the General Partner and 99 percent to the limited
partners. A partnership net loss in any year will be allocated 24 percent to the
General Partner and 76 percent to the limited partners until the losses so
allocated equal income previously allocated. Any additional losses will be
allocated one percent to the General Partner and 99 percent to the limited
partners. Partnership gains from any sale or refinancing will be allocated one
percent to the General Partner and 99 percent to the limited partners until
allocated gains and profits equal losses. Additional gains will be allocated 24
percent to the General Partner and 76 percent to the limited partners.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATIONS

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The partnership offered limited partnership units for sale between March 1983
and March 1984. 15% of the $4.375 million raised through sale of limited
partnership units was used to pay commissions to brokers and to reimburse the
General Partner for offering costs incurred. Approximately $4 million of the
remaining funds were used to acquire sites and build six restaurants.

The six restaurants leased to Del Taco make up almost all of the income
producing assets of the partnership. Therefore, the business of the partnership
is almost entirely dependent on the success of the Del Taco trade name
restaurants that lease the properties. The success of the restaurants is
dependent on a large variety of factors, including, but not limited to, consumer
demand and preference for fast food, in general, and for Mexican-American food
in particular.

Results of Operations

The partnership owns six properties that are under long-term lease to Del Taco
for restaurant operations (Del Taco, in turn, has subleased two of the
restaurants to Del Taco franchisees, one of which is affiliated with Del Taco).

The following table sets forth rental revenue earned by restaurant for the year:
