                           NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                 September 30, 1999

                                     (Unaudited)

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared
by the Fund in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles,
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commis-
sion.  In the opinion of Management, all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
included.  Certain amounts on the 1998 financial statements have been
reclassified to conform to the presentation in 1999.

1.  EQUIPMENT LEASED

    Equipment on lease consists of equipment under operating leases.  The
    lessees have agreements with the manufacturer to provide maintenance for
    the leased equipment.  The Fund's operating leases are for initial lease
    terms of 24 to 60 months.  Generally, operating leases will not recover all
    of the undepreciated cost and related expenses of its rental equipment
    during the initial lease terms and the Fund is prepared to remarket the
    equipment.  Fund policy is to review quarterly the expected economic life
    of its rental equipment in order to determine the recoverability of its
    undepreciated cost.  Recent and anticipated technological developments
    affecting the equipment and competitive factors in the marketplace are
    considered among other things, as part of this review.  In accordance with
    Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, the Fund writes down its rental
    equipment to its estimated net realizable value when the amounts are
    reasonably estimated and only recognizes gains upon actual sale of its
    rental equipment.  As a result, $171,720 and $393,654 was charged to write-
    down of equipment to net realizable value for the nine months ended
    September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively.  Any future losses are dependent
    upon unanticipated technological developments affecting the types of equip-
    ment in the portfolio in subsequent years.

    The Fund also has equipment leased under the direct financing method in
    accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 13.  This
    method provides for recognition of income (the excess of the aggregate
    future rentals and estimated additional amounts recoverable upon expira-
    tion of the lease over the related equipment cost) over the life of the
    lease using the interest method.

    The net investment in direct financing leases as of September 30, 1999 is
    as follows:

          Minimum lease payments to be received          $2,620,000
          Unguaranteed residuals                            322,000

2.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

    The General Partner receives 5% or 2% of rental payments from equipment
    under operating leases and full pay-out leases, respectively, for adminis-
    trative and management services performed on behalf of the Fund.  Full pay-
    out leases are noncancellable leases for which rental payments during the
    initial term are at least sufficient to recover the purchase price of the
    equipment, including acquisition fees.  This management fee is paid monthly
    only if and when the Limited Partners have received distributions for the
    period from January 1, 1990 through the end of the most recent quarter
    equal to a return for such period at a rate of 12% per year on the
    aggregate amount paid for their units.

    The General Partner may also receive up to 3% of the proceeds from the
    sale of the Fund's equipment for services and activities to be performed
    in connection with the disposition of equipment.  The payment of this sales
    fee is deferred until the Limited Partners have received cash distributions
    equal to the purchase price of their units plus a 12% cumulative compounded
    priority return.  Based on current estimates, it is not expected that the
    Fund will be required to pay this sales fee to the General Partner.

    Additionally, the General Partner and its parent company are reimbursed by
    the Fund for certain costs of services and materials used by or for the
    Fund except those items covered by the above-mentioned fees.  Following is
    a summary of fees and costs of services and materials charged by the
    General Partner or its parent company during the three and nine months
    ended September 30, 1999 and 1998:

    The Fund maintains its checking and investment accounts in Jefferson Bank,
    a subsidiary of JeffBanks, Inc., in which the Chairman of Resource America,
    Inc. serves as a director.

    Amounts due from related parties at September 30, 1999 and December 31,
    1998 represent monies due the Fund from the General Partner and/or other
    affiliated funds for rentals and sales proceeds collected and not yet re-
    mitted to the Fund.

    Amounts due to related parties at September 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998
    represent monies due to the General Partner for the fees and costs men-
    tioned above, as well as, rentals and sales proceeds collected by the Fund
    on behalf of other affiliated funds.

3.  YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

    All of the main software systems utilized to generate information for the
    Fund are now Year 2000 compliant and in the testing phase.  The costs
    incurred to complete the Year 2000 Compliance project are not expected to
    be material to the net income of the Fund.

    All suppliers for the Fund continue to complete their Year 2000 Compliance
    programs.  It is not anticipated that the Fund will incur any significant
    losses should any of its outside suppliers fail to meet their Year 2000
    Compliance deadlines.

4.  CASH DISTRIBUTION

    The General Partner declared and paid three cash distributions of $25,000
    each subsequent to September 30, 1999 for each of the months ended July 31,
    August 31 and September 30, 1999 for an aggregate of $75,000 to all
    admitted partners as of July 31, August 31 and September 30, 1999.

                        FIDELITY LEASING INCOME FUND VI, L.P.

Item 2:  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

    Fidelity Leasing Income Fund VI, L.P. had revenues of $460,673 and
$1,638,732 for the three months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998,
respectively, and $1,362,710 and $3,608,651 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively.  Rental income from the leasing of
equipment accounted for 49% and 96% of total revenues for the third quarter of
1999 and 1998, respectively and 56% and 94% of total revenues for the nine
months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively.  The decrease in total
revenues in 1999 was attributable to the decrease in rental income.  During the
nine months ended September 30, 1999, rental income decreased by approximately
$2,789,000 because of equipment that came off lease or was re-leased at lower
rental rates or sold.  However, this decrease in rental income was mitigated by
an increase in rents of $154,000 because of equipment purchases made since
September of 1998 as well as rental income recognized on 1998 equipment
purchases for which a full nine months was earned in 1999 and only a portion of
the nine months was earned in 1998.  The overall decrease in revenues, however,
was partially mitigated by the increase in earned income on direct financing
leases.  The Fund invested in direct financing leases throughout 1998 that
generated $221,563 of earned income during the nine months ended September 30,
1999 compared to $37,876 for the same period in 1998.  Additionally, the Fund
recognized a net gain on sale of equipment of $218,955 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1999 compared to $90,939 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1998 which also reduced the overall decrease in revenues in 1999.
Furthermore, the interest income earned by the Fund on the short-term invest-
ment of cash increased in 1999 which lowered the amount of the decrease in
total revenues during the nine months ended September 30, 1999, as well.  The
Fund had larger cash balances available for investment during 1999 compared to
1998.  The Fund also received late charges of approximately $21,000 that are
included in other income for the first nine months of 1999.  There were no late
charges received during this same period in 1998.  This increase also reduced
the decrease in total revenues in 1999.

    Expenses were $355,099 and $1,664,335 for the three months ended September
30, 1999 and 1998, respectively, and $1,112,898 and $3,586,976 for the nine
months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively.  Depreciation expense
comprised 55% and 78% of total expenses for the third quarter of 1999 and 1998,
respectively and 53% and 76% of total expenses for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively.  The decrease in expenses for the
nine months ended September 30, 1999 was primarily related to the decrease in
depreciation expense resulting from equipment that came off lease or terminated
and sold since September 1998.  Additionally, the decrease in write-down of
equipment to net realizable value contributed to the overall decrease in
expenses in 1999.  Based upon the quarterly review of the recoverability of
the undepreciated cost of rental equipment, $171,720 was charged to write-down
of equipment to net realizable value during the nine months ended September 30,
1999 compared to $393,654 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998.  Any
future losses are dependent upon unanticipated technological developments
affecting the types of equipment in the portfolio in subsequent years.
Furthermore, management fee to related party decreased in 1999 which also
accounted for the overall decrease in expenses.  The decrease in this account
was partially related to the decrease in rental income earned by the Fund on
operating leases.  The Fund also paid lower management fees of 2% on full pay-
out leases.  Many of the leases purchased in 1998 were direct financing leases
which meet the requirements of full pay-out leases for the purpose of
calculating management fees.

Item 2:  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

    The Fund's net income (loss) was $125,574 and ($25,603) for the three
months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively, and $249,812 and
$21,675 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively.
The earnings (loss) per equivalent limited partnership unit, after earnings
(loss) allocated to the General Partner, were $4.22 and ($.90) based on a
weighted average number of equivalent limited partnership units outstanding of
29,433 and 29,217 for the three months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998,
respectively.  The earnings per equivalent limited partnership unit, after
earnings allocated to the General Partner, were $8.39 and $.66 based on a
weighted average number of equivalent limited partnership units outstanding
of 29,475 and 29,399 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998,
respectively.

    The Fund generated cash from operations of $270,498 and $1,428,953 for
the purpose of determining cash available for distribution, and distributed
28% and 5% of these amounts subsequent to September 30, 1999 and 1998,
respectively.  For the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, the
Fund generated $797,252 and $3,037,190 of cash from operations and distributed
19% and 5% of these amounts during the first nine months of 1999 and 1998,
respectively and 9% and 2% of these amounts subsequent to September 30, 1999
and 1998, respectively.  For financial statement purposes, the Fund records
cash distributions to partners on a cash basis in the period in which they are
paid.

ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

    The Fund continues the process of dissolution during 1999.  As provided in
the Restated Limited Partnership Agreement, the assets of the Fund shall be
liquidated as promptly as is consistent with obtaining their fair value.
During this time, the Fund will continue to purchase equipment for lease with
cash available from operations which is not distributed to partners.  There
were no purchases of equipment or investments in direct financing leases made
during the first nine months of 1999.  The Fund purchased $4,789,875 of
equipment and invested $1,837,211 in direct financing leases during the nine
months ended September 30, 1998.

    The cash position of the Fund is reviewed daily and cash is invested on a
short-term basis.

    The Fund's cash from operations is expected to continue to be adequate to
cover all operating expenses and contingencies during the next twelve month
period.
