                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                 JUNE 30, 1995

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, 1994.  In the
opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
accruals) necessary to present fairly the partnership's financial position at
June 30, 1995, the results of operations and cash flows for the six month
periods ended June 30, 1995 and 1994 have been included.  Operating results for
the three and six months ended June 30, 1995 are not necessarily indicative of
the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 1995.

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
8,751 in 1995 and 1994.

Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, annual partnership net income is
allocated one percent to the General Partner and 99 percent to the Limited
Partners.  A Partnership net loss in any year will be allocated 24 percent to
the General Partner and 76 percent to the Limited Partners until the losses so
allocated equal income previously allocated.  Any additional losses will be
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.  Additional gains will be allocated
24 percent to the General Partner and 76 percent to the Limited Partners.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED
JUNE 30, 1995


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 six Properties
leased as of June 30, 1995 and 1994, two of which have been subleased to Del
Taco franchisees (one of which is affiliated with Del Taco, Inc.)

NOTE 4 - TRANSACTIONS WITH DEL TACO

The receivable from General Partner consists primarily of rent accrued for the
month of June.  The June rent receivable was collected on July 13, 1995.

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 July 11, 1995, a distribution to the Limited Partners of $91,580, or
approximately $10.47 per Limited Partnership Unit, was approved.  Such
distribution was paid on July 12, 1995.  The General Partner also received a
distribution of $925 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 March 21,
1983.  By March 20, 1984, the sale of such Units provided a total
capitalization for the Registrant of $4,375,500.  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 six restaurants.  In 1985, the first four restaurants opened for business
and two additional restaurants were opened in 1986.  Approximately $4,002,000
was expended for such purposes.

Since the six restaurants owned by the Registrant opened, cash flow from Lease
payments received from Del Taco, the Registrant's General Partner, which leases
all six 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 owns six Mexican-American restaurants that are under long-term
lease to its General Partner for operation under the Del Taco trade name.  The
Registrant receives rental revenues equal to 12 percent of restaurant sales.
For the three months ended June 30, rental revenues increased from $102,416 in
1994 to $117,499 in 1995. For the six months ended June 30, rental revenues
increased from $198,380 in 1994 to $212,896 in 1995. Such increases are
directly attributable to increased sales at the restaurants.

The following table sets forth the percentage relationship to total general and
administrative expenses of items included in the Registrant's Statements of
Income:

Operating expenses include general and administrative expenses which consist
primarily of accounting fees and costs of distribution of information to the
Limited Partners.  For the three months ended June 30, general and
administrative expenses decreased from $9,382 in 1994 to $7,949 in 1995.  For
the six months ended June 30, general and administrative expenses decreased
from $31,404 in 1994 to $28,316 in 1995.  For the three months ended June 30,
the Registrant incurred depreciation expense in the amount of $36,024 in 1995
and $39,343 in 1994.  The Registrant incurred depreciation expense of $75,368
and $78,687, for the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively.

For the three months ended June 30, revenues increased by $15,102 while
expenses decreased by $4,752 resulting in an increase in net income from
$54,314 in 1994 to $74,168 in 1995.  For the six months ended June 30, revenues
increased by $14,421 while expenses decreased by $6,407 resulting in an
increase in the Registrant's net income from $89,733 for the six months ended
June 30, 1994 to $110,561 for the corresponding period in 1995.

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.
