equipment to engage in equipment leasing and sales activities.  Contributions in
the  aggregate  of $600 were  received  as of  October  6,  1992,  $100 of which

Upon the sale of the  minimum  amount of Units of Limited  Partnership  interest
(Units) of $1,200,000 and the receipt of the proceeds thereof on March 19, 1993,

7.  Line of credit:

The  Partnership  participates  with the  General  Partner  and  certain  of its
Affiliates in a $77,500,000 revolving credit agreement with a group of financial
institutions  which  expires  on  July  28,  2001.  The  agreement  includes  an
acquisition  facility and a warehouse  facility which are used to provide bridge
financing  for  assets  on  leases.  Draws on the  acquisition  facility  by any
individual  borrower  are  secured  only by that  borrower's  assets,  including
equipment and related leases.  Borrowings on the warehouse facility are recourse
jointly to certain of the Affiliates, the Partnership and the General Partner.

At September  30, 2000,  the  Partnership  had no  borrowings  under the line of
credit.

The credit agreement  includes certain  financial  covenants  applicable to each
borrower.  The  Partnership was in compliance with its covenants as of September
30, 2000.

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

Capital Resources and Liquidity

The Partnership currently has available adequate reserves to meet contingencies,
but in the event those  reserves were found to be  inadequate,  the  Partnership
would  likely be in a position to borrow  against its current  portfolio to meet
such  requirements.  The General  Partner  envisions  no such  requirements  for
operating purposes.

As of  September  30,  2000,  the  Partnership  had  borrowed  $58,317,911.  The
remaining unpaid balance as of that date was $17,632,348.  Long-term  borrowings
are to be  non-recourse  to the  Partnership,  that is, the only recourse of the
lender will be to the equipment or corresponding  lease acquired or secured with
the loan proceeds.  The General Partner expects that aggregate borrowings in the
future  will not exceed  40% of  aggregate  equipment  cost.  In any event,  the
Agreement of Limited Partnership limits such borrowings to 40% of the total cost
of equipment, in aggregate.

The  Partnership  participates  with the  General  Partner  and  certain  of its
affiliates in a $77,500,000  revolving  line of credit with a group of financial
institutions. The line of credit expires on July 28, 2001.

No  commitments  of capital  have been or are expected to be made other than for
the acquisition of additional equipment. As of September 30, 2000, there were no
such commitments.

If  inflation  in the general  economy  becomes  significant,  it may affect the
Partnership  inasmuch as the residual  (resale) values and rates on re-leases of
the  Partnership's  leased  assets may  increase as the costs of similar  assets
increase.  However,  the  Partnership's  revenues from existing leases would not
increase,  as such rates are generally fixed for the terms of the leases without
adjustment for inflation.

If interest rates increase  significantly,  the lease rates that the Partnership
can obtain on future  leases will be expected to increase as the cost of capital
is a significant  factor in the pricing of lease  financing.  Leases  already in
place, for the most part, would not be affected by changes in interest rates.

In 2000 and in 1999, the Partnership's most significant source of cash was lease
rents.

Cash flows - 2000 vs. 1999:

In both 2000 and 1999, the Partnership's  primary source of operating cash flows
was operating  lease rents.  Operating  lease rents have decreased by $3,170,901
(30%) as a result of asset sales over the last year.

In 2000 and 1999 the largest  source of cash from  investing  activities was the
proceeds  from sales of lease  assets.  In both  years,  lease rents from direct
financing lease transactions also provided a significant amount of cash flows.

There  were no  sources if cash from  financing  activities  in 2000 or in 1999.
Repayments of  non-recourse  debt have  decreased as a result of scheduled  debt
payments. Distributions to the Limited Partners did not change significantly.

Results of operations - 2000 vs. 1999:

In 2000,  operations  resulted  in net income of  $1,849,057  for the nine month
period  and a net  loss of  $162,959  for  the  three  month  period.  In  1999,
operations  resulted in net income of  $3,128,444  for the nine month period and
$501,742 for the three month period.

Operating leases are the Partnership's primary source of revenues. Such revenues
decreased by $3,170,901 (30%) compared to 1999. The decrease resulted from asset
sales over the last year.  Depreciation expense is directly related to operating
lease assets and has also decreased  compared to 1999 as a result of these asset
sales.  Management  fees  are  based  on  the  Partnership's  revenues  and  its
distributions  to the  Limited  Partners.  As a result of the  decrease in lease
revenues,  management  fees have declined  compared to 1999.  Debt balances have
been reduced by scheduled debt payments and this has resulted in the decrease of
$511,620 in interest expense compared to 1999.

                           PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings.

No material legal  proceedings are currently  pending against the Partnership or
against any of its assets.

Schwegmann's Giant Supermarkets

In October  1997,  Schwegmann's  Giant  Supermarkets,  one of the  Partnership's
lessees, defaulted on two of five locations of retail grocery store fixtures and
equipment,  the lease payments,  and certain other  obligations under the lease,
with a receivable  balance currently totaling  approximately  $1.7 million.  The
remaining portion of the lease payments with respect to three of five stores was
assumed by SGSM  Acquisition  Company  ("SGSM").  Payments with respect to these
leases remained  current until February 1999;  however,  on March 26, 1999, SGSM
filed for protection  under Chapter 11 of the U.S.  Bankruptcy Code. On February
22, 2000 and then on September 20, 2000,  two of the obligors under the original
lease,  Schwegmann  Westside  Expressway Inc. and Schwegmann Giant  Supermarkets
Partnership  filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U. S. Bankruptcy Code,
respectively.

The  Partnership  is currently  pursuing  damages in the amount of $2.8 million,
representing  amounts due under the lease.  The lessee has  claimed  that it has
sufficient  assets to satisfy the claims of all secured creditors of the lessee;
however,  the lessee's  assets are primarily  relatively  illiquid real property
investments.  As of this date, the General Partner  believes that it is doubtful
as to the likelihood of recovering all of the amounts claimed, however, it has a
reasonable basis for assuming substantial recovery of its current balance.

Pegasus Gold Corporation

On January 16, 1998, Pegasus Gold Corporation filed for protection under Chapter
11. The initial  meeting of creditors  established by the  Bankruptcy  Court was
held on March 9, 1998.  The lessee's lease with the  Partnership  had previously
been leveraged on a non-recourse basis with The CIT  Group/Equipment  Financing,
Inc. ("CIT"), and all lease receivables (currently estimated at $2,336,266 as of
September 30, 2000) were assigned to the lender. Consequently, the Partnership's
exposure is no greater  than the fair  market  residual  value of the  equipment
under lease,  currently estimated at $1,101,803.  The reorganized  lessee/debtor
has assumed the  Partnership's  lease in the Bankruptcy Court and, made all past
due payments current.  The Partnership has entered into an Escrow Agreement with
CIT,  wherein CIT has agreed not to foreclose on the  Partnership's  interest so
long as the lessee continues to perform under the lease.

At this  time,  the lessee is current  in its lease  obligations.  The  ultimate
recovery under this lease is dependent on the price of gold remaining at a level
sufficient to make the lessee's operations profitable,  and,  consequently,  any
assessment of the impact of an adverse outcome of this matter remains uncertain.

Quaker Coal Company

On December  31,  1997,  Quaker Coal  Company  requested a  moratorium  on lease
payments from January  through  March 1998. No lease  payments were made through
June of 1998. As a result,  the General  Partner  declared the lease in default.
Subsequently,  the lessee made the outstanding  payments,  however,  the General
Partner  refused to waive the default and insisted on additional  damages in the
range of $993,000 to $1,370,000. The General Partner sued the lessee for damages
and was awaiting judgment from the court when on June 16, 2000, the lessee filed
for protection under the U. S. Bankruptcy Act.

The  Partnership has filed a stipulation for relief from stay to allow the court
to issue its  ruling,  and has filed a request to  participate  on the  Official
Committee of Unsecured  Creditors.  The  Partnership has succeeded upon securing
the return of its equipment  which it is currently  liquidating.  The amounts of
these  damages have not been included in the  financial  statements  included in
Item 1 of this report,  however the  liklihood of recovery of amounts  above the
liquidation of the equipment is speculative.
