As of March 1, 1997, 15,000 Limited Partnership Units were outstanding. Such
Limited Partnership Units were sold at $500 per Unit. However, no market for the
Limited Partnership Units of the Registrant exists and therefore the aggregate
market value of the Units held by non-affiliates of the Registrant is not
determinable.

PART I
Item 1. Business
--------
(a) General Development of Business
-------------------------------
Armored Storage Income Investors Limited Partnership (the "Registrant") is a
limited partnership formed on December 4, 1984 under the laws of the State of
Arizona to acquire, develop, own and operate self-storage facilities using a
minimum of mortgage indebtedness. The Registrant sold $7,500,000 in Limited
Partnership Interests to the public pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form
S-18 under the Securities Act of 1933 (Registration Statement No. 2-95034LA), as
amended. The offering commenced on March 8, 1985 and terminated on February 28,
1986.
(b) Financial Information About Industry Segments
---------------------------------------------
The Registrant operates in only one industry segment, the acquisition,
development, operation and holding for investment of self-storage facilities.
Information relating to the Registrant's revenues, operating profit and
identifiable assets attributable thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31,
1996 is set forth under Item 8 below.
(c) Narrative Description of Business
---------------------------------
The Self-Service Storage Association (SSSA) estimates that approximately
one-half of the population relocates every three years. Urban areas are becoming
more congested, houses are getting smaller and people are requiring outside
storage space to meet their needs. Business owners, too, are feeling the crunch
as the square foot cost of office space increases. They need an affordable
alternative to using expensive office space for the storage of records and
supplies.
Self-storage is an innovation responding to the needs of the community. The
facilities owned and operated by the Registrant are designed to offer low cost,
accessible and secure storage space for business and personal use. In addition
to indoor units, special parking areas are available for convenient storage of
recreational vehicles. Computerized entry systems and on-site, live-in managers
provide an extra measure of security. The facilities of the Registrant are
designed for a comfortable architectural blend with the surrounding residential,
commercial and retail areas.
The Partnership's principal investment objectives are: (i) to provide
distributions of Cash Flow from operations; (ii) realize capital appreciation of
the Partnership's Properties; (iii) to preserve and protect the Limited
Partner's capital; and, (iv) to develop a geographically diversified investment
portfolio of self-storage properties. There can be no assurance that these
objectives will be attained.
<PAGE>
Markets and Competition.
- ------------------------
The Phoenix and Albuquerque markets have one of the greatest saturations of
storage facilities per capita in the country. To meet the competition the
Registrant is, and intends to continue, taking steps to maximize efficient
operations and to differentiate its facilities from the competition.
General Risks of Real Estate Ownership.
- ---------------------------------------
The Registrant's investments are subject to the risks generally incident to the
ownership of real property. These risks include the uncertainty of cash flow to
meet fixed obligations, adverse changes in national economic conditions, changes
in the relative demand for space in the locale of the facility (and thus the
relative price which can be charged), adverse local market conditions due to
changes in general or local economic conditions or neighborhood values, changes
in interest rates and in the availability, cost and terms of mortgage funds, the
financial condition of tenants and sellers of properties, changes in real estate
tax rates and other operating expenses, governmental rules and fiscal policies
including possible proposals for rent controls, as well as acts of God,
uninsured losses and other factors.
Seasonality. The business of the Registrant is not generally subject to seasonal
- ------------
variations.
Employees. The Registrant has no full-time employees.
- ----------
(d) Financial Information About Foreign and Domestic Operations and Export Sales
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The registrant does not derive any revenue from foreign operations or export
sales.
Item 2. Description of Property
-----------------------
The Partnership has three self-storage facilities, two of which are located in
Phoenix, Arizona and one located in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
Bell Road, Phoenix, Arizona
- ---------------------------
The Partnership owns a three-story enclosed self-storage facility at 1025 E.
Bell Road, Phoenix, Arizona ("Bell Road"). This facility consists of
approximately 81,500 gross square feet, built on 1.5 acres of land. The storage
facility includes 807 indoor spaces, 54 safety deposit boxes, and 114 mail
boxes. The property was acquired from an affiliate of the General Partner at a
cost of $2,249,632 of which $2,049,632 was allocated for the building, and
$200,000 allocated for the land. The purchase price represented the affiliate's
cost in the land and improvements. The facility was acquired in November 1985
while still in the developmental stage and became operational in January 1986.
As of January 31, 1997, the facility had an occupancy level of 87%.
<PAGE>
63rd Avenue and McDowell
- ------------------------
The Partnership owns a self-storage facility at 63rd Avenue and McDowell Road in
Phoenix, Arizona ("63rd Avenue"). This facility consists of 76,325 gross square
feet of rentable space consisting of eight separate single level buildings built
on 3.9 acres of land. A two-story building houses the office and the manager's
apartment. The Registrant acquired the facility in December 1986 for a purchase
price of $2,300,000. As of January 31, 1997, the facility had an occupancy level
of 75%.
Tramway - Albuquerque, New Mexico
- ---------------------------------
The Partnership owns a three-story enclosed facility located at 12920 Indian
School Road, at the intersection of Tramway Boulevard in Albuquerque, New Mexico
("Tramway"). This facility consists of approximately 82,000 gross square feet,
built on 1.2 acres of land. The Partnership purchased the undeveloped property
from an affiliate of the General Partner in October 1985 for a purchase price of
$298,566, which represented the affiliate's cost in the land. Construction of
the facility was completed in September 1987 at a cost of approximately
$1,691,501. As of January 31, 1997, the facility had an occupancy level of 80%.
Additional information relative to the Properties is provided elsewhere in this
report and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings.

The Registrant is not subject to any material pending legal proceedings.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
---------------------------------------------------
No matters were submitted to a vote of Limited Partnership Unit Holders during

PART II
Item 5. Market for the Registrant's Common Equity and Related Security Holder
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

- -------
(a) Market Information. No market for Limited Partnership Units exists or is
expected to develop.
(b) Holders. The approximate number of holders of the Registrant's Limited
Partnership Units as of the close of business on December 31, 1996 was 1067.
(c) Dividends. During the years ended December 31, 1991 through 1994, and in
1996 the Partnership made distributions of cash to the Limited Partners. No
distributions were made in 1995. The source of the distributions were as
follows:

======== ======== ======== ======== ======== ========
</TABLE>
<PAGE>
The Registrant will make annual distributions, to the extent available, of Cash
Available for Distribution. There is, however, no assurance as to when or
whether such cash will be available for distribution to the Limited Partners.
Cash Available for Distribution is generally the Partnership's Excess Reserves
and Cash Flow after reduction for any additions to reserves, and after payment
of all operating cash expenses.
To the extent available, Cash Available for Distribution for any Partnership
fiscal year will be distributed 95% to the Limited Partners and 5% to the
General Partner. As referred to in Item 11, the general partner is to be
allocated a minimum of 1% of the cash available for distribution.
If in any period the General Partner determines that Partnership working capital
reserves are in excess of the amount deemed necessary for Partnership operations
(such excess being called "Excess Reserves"), such Excess Reserves may be
distributed as Cash Available for Distribution.
Cash Available for Distribution will be distributed to the Limited Partners of
record as of the end of the applicable period in the ratio which the Units owned
by such Limited Partner bears to the total Units owned by all Limited Partners
entitled to such distribution.
Item 6. Selected Financial Data

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
of Operations
-------------
(a)(1) and (a)(2) Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------
The Registrant was organized in December 1984 and its offering of Limited
Partnership Units was declared effective March 8, 1985. The entire offering of
$7,500,000 was sold during the offering period.
The cash balance at December 31, 1996 of $426,865 will be used primarily as
working capital reserves and, when appropriate, for distributions to the Limited
Partners. It is anticipated that capital resources will increase during the
coming year with a corresponding increase in the Registrant's liquidity as the
facilities increase in occupancy.
The registrant has acquired and developed all of its properties, therefore, no
significant additional outlays of funds are expected beyond those items already
budgeted.
(a)(3) Results of Operations
---------------------
The Partnership's three operating facilities and dates opened are as follows:
Facility Date Opened
-------- -----------
Bell Road January 1986
63rd Avenue December 1986
Tramway September 1987
In 1996 the Registrant's facilities generated $1,118,127 in rental income, an
increase of 4.5% over 1995. Occupancy figures are summarized as follows:
Average Occupancy High Low 12/31/96
----------------- ---- --- --------
Bell Road 85% 91% 81% 87%
63rd Avenue 76% 78% 74% 74%
Tramway 82% 87% 74% 80%
<PAGE>
Rental income increased even through average occupancies dropped slightly at
each facility. A mini building boom in storage facilities is partly responsible
for the decrease in occupancy rates. Revenues are expected to increase slightly
in 1997 as demand for storage space remains high.
Expenses relating to property operations were $393,953 in 1996, approximately
$12,000 less than 1995. Partnership administration expenses were slightly lower
as well for 1996. Expenses in 1997 should be similar to those in prior years.
Net cash generated from operations of $649,549 was used to make the annual
distribution and to rebuild cash reserves. As rent increases take effect and the
facilities continue to achieve higher occupancies, cash flow will increase
accordingly.
Inflation has historically been a contributing factor to the increase in rental
income levels and capital appreciation of income producing real estate. The most
significant trends or uncertainties having an impact on the Partnership's
revenues are those associated with inflation, changes in demand for self-storage
spaces and fluctuations in rental and occupancy rates of the Partnership
properties. The modest inflation levels of the past several years have kept rent
increases to a minimum. We continue to monitor the properties performance to
maximize long-term capital appreciation which is consistent with the
Partnership's objectives.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Armored Storage
Income Investors Limited Partnership as of December 31, 1996 and 1995 and the
related statements of operations, changes in partners' equity, and cash flows
for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1996. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence

also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Armored Storage
Income Investors Limited Partnership as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the
results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the

1. Partnership organization:
Armored Storage Income Investors Limited Partnership (the Partnership) was
organized under the laws of the State of Arizona pursuant to an
agreement of limited partnership filed December 4, 1984, for the
purpose of acquiring, developing, owning and operating self-service
storage facilities in Arizona and New Mexico. The initial general
partners were Armored Storage, Inc., an Arizona corporation (the
Managing General Partner) and Armored Storage One Limited Partnership,
an Arizona limited partnership. The Partnership commenced full activity
on January 9, 1985. During 1986, the Partnership completed an offering
of limited partnership units wherein 15,000 limited partnership units
were purchased by investors for $7,500,000. In December, 1987, Armored
Storage, Inc. withdrew from the Partnership and Armored Storage One
Limited Partnership then became the Managing General Partner and
assumed the partner's capital account of Armored Storage, Inc. In
February, 1994, Armored Management Limited Liability Corporation
(L.L.C.) was appointed the general partner of Armored Storage One
Limited Partnership.
2. Summary of significant accounting policies:
Rental property and equipment:
Rental property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided
on the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:
Years
-----
Buildings 30
Furniture and fixtures 5
Rental income:
The Partnership generates rental income from month-to-month rental
agreements for space at its self-storage facilities. Rental income is
recognized on the accrual basis.
Accounts receivable are recorded for rental payments that are delinquent
at year end. An allowance is recorded for management's estimate of
uncollectible rental receivables. After a receivable is 90 days
delinquent, the contents of the unit are sold and the proceeds are used
to reduce the receivable balance.
Income taxes:
The Partnership does not record a provision for income taxes as any income
or loss from the partnership is recognized by the individual partners
for tax reporting purposes.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies, continued:
Cash and cash equivalents:
For reporting in the statements of cash flows, the Partnership considers
all certificates of deposit and money market funds purchased with a
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Concentration of risk:
Periodically during the year, the Company maintains cash in financial
institutions in excess of the amounts insured by the federal
government.
Advertising costs:
Advertising costs are charged to operations as incurred.
Accounting estimates:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.

receive, as compensation for services, the greater of $1,000 per month
or 6% of the gross cash receipts from the prior month for each of the
three facilities it manages.
The Partnership entered into an agreement with QuestCor to provide
administrative services to the Partnership, such as investor relations,
database management (including data processing of investor
subscriptions, fund distributions, ownership changes, and subscription
input), accounting, preparation and coordination of the preparation of
periodic regulatory reports and tax related forms. The term of the
agreement is for one year through December, 1997 and shall continue on
a month-to-month basis unless either party terminates the agreement.
The agreement provided for payment by the Partnership to Questcor of
$4,500 per month in 1996, 1995 and 1994 as compensation for its
services. Additionally, the Partnership pays QuestCor approximately
$5,000 per year for providing assistance in the annual Partnership

6. Partners' equity:
The limited partnership agreement provides that profits, losses and cash
available for distribution shall be allocated as follows:
Allocation of net income:
Net income is to be allocated to the limited partners, ninety-five percent
(95%) in accordance with their capital percentages and to the general
partner, five percent (5%), until such time as the limited partners
have received in cash from all sources (other than cash available for
distribution) an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of their
capital thereafter to the Limited Partners, eighty-five percent (85%)
in accordance with their capital percentages, and to the general
partner, fifteen percent (15%).
Allocation of net loss:
Net losses are to be allocated to the limited partners, ninety-nine
percent (99%) in accordance with their capital percentages and to the
general partner, one percent (1%), until such time as the limited
partners have received distributions of cash from all sources (other
than cash available for distribution) in an amount equal to one hundred
percent (100%) of their capital contributions; thereafter to the
limited partners, eighty-five percent (85%) in accordance with their
capital percentages and to the general partner, fifteen percent (15%).
Cash available for distribution:
All cash available for distribution, if any, realized by or available to
the Partnership, shall be distributed no less frequently than annually
in the following percentages: (1) to the limited partners, ninety-five
percent (95%) in accordance with their capital percentages; and (2) to
the general partner five percent (5%) subordinated to a ten percent
(10%) annual cumulative noncompounded return with respect to the
limited partner's adjusted capital contributions determined as of the
first day of each calendar quarter, which distribution must be made
before the general partner is entitled to participate in cash available
for distribution.
Cash available for distribution is generally the Partnership's net cash
flow less amounts set aside as reserves.
During 1995, the Partnership paid in full its outstanding note payable
with a bank. As a result, the Partnership did not make partner
distributions during 1995.
If in any period the general partner determines that Partnership working
capital reserves are in excess of the amount deemed necessary for
Partnership operations, such excess reserves may be distributed as cash
available for distribution.

Partnership Agreement do not result in the allocation or distribution
to the general partners of an aggregate of at least one percent (1%) of
the item being allocated or distributed, the limited partnership
agreement states that the general partner is to be allocated or
distributed so much more of such item as will cause the general partner
