NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The financial statements presented herein are prepared in conformity with 
generally accepted accounting principles and the instructions for preparing Form 
10-Q under Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange 
Commission and are unaudited.  As such, these financial statements do not 
include all information and footnote disclosures required under generally 
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements and, 
accordingly, the accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction 
with the footnotes presented in the 1994 Annual Report.  Except as disclosed 
herein, there has been no material change to the information presented in the 
footnotes to the 1994 Annual Report.

     Beginning July 1, 1994, the General Partner initiated the liquidation of 
the Partnership in accordance with the Amended and Restated Agreement and 
Certificate of Limited Partnership (the "Restated Agreement, as amended"). 
Accordingly, the financial statements herein for the three months ended March 
31, 1995 have been prepared on a liquidation basis of accounting.

     In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal and 
recurring adjustments) considered necessary to present fairly the Partnership's 
net assets in liquidation at March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994, its changes 
in net assets in liquidation for the three months ended March 31, 1995 and its 
results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 1994 
have been made and are reflected.


NOTE 2 - CASH

     At March 31, 1995, the Partnership had $395,000 invested in reverse 
repurchase agreements secured by U.S. Treasury Bills or interests in U.S. 
Government securities.


NOTE 3 - REVENUE RECOGNITION

     All of the Partnership's primary and renewal leases had expired and all of 
the associated equipment was sold as of December 31, 1994.  No future rents are 
due.


NOTE 4 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

     All operating expenses incurred by the Partnership are paid by American 
Finance Group ("AFG") on behalf of the Partnership and AFG is reimbursed at its 
actual cost for such expenditures.  Fees and other costs incurred during the 
three months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, which were paid or accrued by the 
Partnership to AFG or its Affiliates, are as follows:

     Equipment management fees                    --    $   5,586 
     Reimbursable operating expenses
       due to third parties                $  13,834       18,329

                               Total       $  16,834    $  26,915 


     All rents and proceeds from the sale of equipment were paid directly to 
either AFG or to a lender. AFG temporarily deposited collected funds in a 
separate interest bearing escrow account prior to remittance to the Partnership.   
The Partnership was owed no such funds at March 31, 1995.

                         PART I.  FINANCIAL INFORMATION


Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
        Results of Operations.


Overview

     On July 1, 1994, the General Partner initiated the liquidation of the 
Partnership.  The Partnership was organized in 1986 to acquire and lease a 
diversified portfolio of capital equipment to third-party lessees and to 
distribute the net proceeds from operating and remarketing activities, after 
satisfaction of all expenses and debt service obligations, to the Partners.  The 
Partnership was capitalized with $20,221,250 of equity from the Limited Partners 
and $50,000 of equity from the General Partner and acquired $34,595,921 of 
equipment, subject to related indebtedness.  All of the Partnership's equipment 
has been sold.  Dissolution of the Partnership is expected in 1995.


Results of Operations

     The Statement of Changes in Net Assets in Liquidation is presented for the 
three months ended March 31, 1995 and reflects the liquidation of assets during 
the period.  As a result, a comparison between current and prior year reporting 
periods is not meaningful.

     For the period ended March 31, 1995, the Partnership recognized $5,549 of 
interest income generated from the temporary investment of excess cash.  
Operating expenses consisted principally of administrative charges, professional 
service costs, such as audit and legal fees, as well as printing and 
distribution expenses.  These charges amounted to $16,834 during the period 
ended March 31, 1995.  The Partnership will continue to to incur distribution, 
accounting and administrative costs until the Partnership is dissolved. 


Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The Partnership will have limited cash activities for the remainder of its 
existence.  Prior to its dissolution, cash transactions are expected to result 
from the receipt of interest income on short-term investments, the payment of 
operating expenses, discussed above, and the payment of distributions to 
the Partners.  At March 31, 1995, the Partnership had $399,695 of cash, 
substantially all of which was invested in interest-bearing investments.  See 
Note 2 to the financial statements herein.

     For the three months ended March 31, 1995, the Partnership declared total 
distributions of $204,255.  In accordance with the Restated Agreement, as 
amended, the Limited Partners were allocated 99% of these distributions, or 
$202,212 and the General Partner was allocated 1%, or $2,043.  The first quarter 
1995  cash  distribution  was  paid  on  April 14, 1995.  Since  inception, the 
Partnership has distributed $21,002,832 to the Limited Partners and $212,150 to 
the General Partner.

     Cash distributions paid to the Limited Partners consist of both a return of 
and a return on capital.  To the extent that cash distributions consist of Cash 
From Sales or Refinancings, substantially all of such cash distributions should 
be viewed as a return of capital.  Cash distributions do not represent and are 
not indicative of yield on investment.  Actual yield on investment will be 
determined coincident with the final cash distribution payment to the Partners.
