                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                               SEPTEMBER 30, 1997


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, 1996. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary
to present fairly the partnership's financial position at September 30, 1997,
the results of operations and cash flows for the nine month periods ended
September 30, 1997 and 1996 have been included. Operating results for the three
and nine months ended September 30, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 1997.

In fiscal 1996, the Registrant adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (SFAS) No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long Lived Assets
and for Long Lived Assets to be Disposed of." SFAS 121 requires that long-lived
assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. In
evaluating long-lived assets held for use, an impairment loss is recognized if
the sum of the expected future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest
charges) is less than the carrying value of the asset. Once a determination has
been made that an impairment loss should be recognized for long-lived assets,
various assumptions and estimates are used to determine fair value including,
among others, estimated costs of construction and development, recent sales of
comparable properties and the opinions of fair value prepared by independent
real estate appraisers. Long-lived assets to be disposed of are reported at the
lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.

The adoption of SFAS No. 121 did not have a material effect on the Registrant's
financial statements.

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
27,006 in 1997 and 1996.

NOTE 2 - NET INCOME PER LIMITED PARTNERSHIP UNIT - (Continued)

Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, annual partnership income or loss is
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, distributions and syndication costs
previously allocated. Additional gains will be allocated 15 percent to the
General Partner and 85 percent to the Limited Partners.

NOTE 3 - LEASING ACTIVITIES

The Registrant leases (the "Leases") certain properties (the "Properties") for
operation of restaurants to Del Taco, Inc. ("General Partner") on a triple net
basis. The Leases are for terms of 35 years commencing with the completion of
the restaurant facility located on each Property and require monthly rentals
equal to 12 percent of the gross sales of the restaurants. There is no minimum
rental under any of the Leases. The Registrant had a total of five Properties
leased as of September 30, 1997 and 1996.

For the three months ended September 30, 1997, the five restaurants operated by
Del Taco, for which the Registrant is the lessor, had combined, unaudited sales
of $975,227 and net income of $56,754 as compared to $954,851 and $54,100
respectively, for the corresponding period in 1996. Net income by restaurant
includes charges for general and administrative expenses incurred in connection
with supervision of restaurant operations and interest expense.

For the nine months ended September 30, 1997, the five restaurants operated by
Del Taco, for which the Registrant is the lessor, had combined, unaudited sales
of $2,780,771 and net income of $137,227 as compared to $2,663,343 and $104,445
respectively, for the corresponding period in 1996.

For the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1997, the Clay Street
restaurant in Riverside, California reported net income of $155 and net loss of
$1,127 as compared to net income of $313 and net loss of $3,897 respectively,
for the corresponding period in 1996.

NOTE 4 - TRANSACTIONS WITH DEL TACO

The receivable from General Partner consists primarily of rent accrued for the
month of September. The September rent was collected on October 11, 1997.

Del Taco, Inc. serves in the capacity of general partner in other partnerships
which are engaged in the business of operating restaurants and four partnerships
which were formed for the purpose of acquiring real property in California for
construction of Mexican-American restaurants for lease under long-term
agreements to Del Taco, Inc.
for operation under the Del Taco trade name.

In addition, see Note 5 with respect to certain distributions to the General
Partner.

NOTE 5 - DISTRIBUTIONS

On October 15, 1997, a distribution to the Limited Partners of $112,788 or
approximately $4.18 per Limited Partnership Unit, was approved. Such
distribution was paid on October 16, 1997. The General Partner also received a
distribution of $1,139 with respect to its 1% partnership interest.

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

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Registrant commenced offering of Limited Partnership Units on September 11,
1984. By December 31, 1985, the sale of such Units provided a total
capitalization for the Registrant of $6,751,500. Fifteen percent of the cash
received from the sale of Limited Partnership Units was used to pay commissions
to brokers and to reimburse the General Partner for offering costs incurred. The
remaining funds were expended for the acquisition of sites and construction of
seven restaurants. In June 1986, the first two restaurants opened for business.
Four additional restaurants opened in 1987, and the seventh restaurant opened in
April of 1988. Approximately $5,600,000 was expended for such purposes. Two
restaurants were sold in 1994.

Since the restaurants owned by the Registrant commenced operation, cash flow
from Lease payments received from Del Taco, the Registrant's General Partner,
which leases all five remaining restaurants, has provided adequate liquidity for
operation of the Registrant. However, the Registrant's overwhelmingly
predominant source of income to meet its expenses and fund distributions to its
Limited Partners is payments from Del Taco under the Leases, comprising
primarily rent calculated on the basis of the gross sales of the restaurants
operated on the Properties, as to which there are no contractually specified
minimum or guaranteed amounts. Thus, the adequacy of the Registrant's liquidity
and capital resources in the future will depend primarily upon the gross
revenues of such restaurants as well as upon Del Taco's financial condition and
results of operations generally.

Results of Operations

The Registrant owned seven Properties that were under long-term lease to Del
Taco for restaurant operations. Two restaurants were sold in 1994 and five are
currently operating. For the five operating Del Taco restaurants, the Registrant
receives rental revenues equal to 12 percent of restaurant sales.

Rental revenues for the three months ended September 30, increased from $114,583
in 1996 to $117,027 in 1997. The Registrant had rental revenues of $319,601 for
the nine months ended September 30, 1996, and the rental revenue increased to
$333,692 in 1997. The increase in revenues is directly attributable to increased
sales at the restaurants.

The following table sets forth rental revenue earned by restaurant for the
quarter and year to date:

Operating expenses include general and administrative expenses which consist
primarily of accounting fees and costs of distribution of information to the
Limited Partners. General and administrative expenses decreased for the three
months ended September 30 from $10,726 in 1996 to $7,393 in 1997. The quarter
ended September 30, 1996 included printing costs for new checks, envelopes and
stationary. For the nine months ended September 30, general and administrative
expenses decreased from $42,734 in 1996 to $38,810 in 1997. Depreciation expense
was $13,545 and $36,017 for the three months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996,
respectively. The Registrant incurred depreciation expense in the amount of
$85,583 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and $108,054 for the nine
months ended September 30, 1996. The decrease in depreciation expense is a
result of certain equipment becoming fully depreciated.

For the three months ended September 30, 1997 revenues increased $4,173 and
expenses decreased $25,805, creating an increase in net income from $68,684 in
1996 to $98,662 in 1997. As a result of increased revenues totaling $16,279 for
the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and decreased expenses totaling $26,395
for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, the net income of the Registrant
increased from $171,020 for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 to $213,694
for the corresponding period in 1997.

For the reasons stated under "Liquidity and Capital Resources" above, the
Registrant's results of operations in the future will depend primarily upon the
gross revenues of the restaurants located on the Properties leased to Del Taco
as well as upon Del Taco's financial condition and results of operations
generally.
