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, 1995.  In the
opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
accruals) necessary to present fairly the partnership's financial position at
June 30, 1996, the results of operations and cash flows for the six month
periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 have been included.  Operating results for
the three and six months ended June 30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of
the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 1996.

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 1996 and 1995.

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 June 30, 1996 and 1995.


NOTE 4 - TRANSACTIONS WITH DEL TACO

The receivable from General Partner consists primarily of rent accrued for the
month of June. The June rent was collected on July 12, 1996.

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 16, 1996, a distribution to the Limited Partners of $77,188 or
approximately $2.85 per Limited Partnership Unit, was approved.  Such
distribution was paid on July 23, 1996.  The General Partner also received a
distribution of $780 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.





                                      -8-

Rental revenues for the three months ended June 30, decreased from $113,269 in
1995 to $106,780 in 1996. The Registrant had rental revenues of $205,018 for
the six months ended June 30, 1996, representing a decrease from the rental
revenues of $214,336 in 1995. The decrease in revenues is directly attributable
to decreased 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.  General and administrative expenses increased for the three
months ended June 30 from $9,497 in 1995 to $11,726 in 1996. For the six months
ended June 30, general and administrative expenses increased from $30,171 in
1995 to $32,008 in 1996.  Depreciation expense was $36,018 for the three months
ended June 30, 1996 and $36,019 for the three months ended June 30, 1995. The
Registrant incurred depreciation expense in the amount of $72,037 for the six
months ended June 30, 1996 and $72,038 for the six months ended June 30, 1995.

For the three months ended June 30, 1996 revenues decreased $6,575 and expenses
increased $2,228, creating a decrease in net income from $68,431 in 1995 to
$59,628 in 1996. As a result of decreased revenues





                                      -9-
   10


totaling $9,585 for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and increased expenses
totaling $1,836 for the six months ended June 30, 1996, the net income of the
Registrant decreased from $113,757 for the six months ended June 30, 1995 to
$102,336 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.
