NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2001
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, 2000. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary
to present fairly the partnership's financial position at March 31, 2001, the
results of operations and cash flows for the three month periods ended March 31,
2001 and 2000 have been included. Operating results for the three months ended
March 31, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the year ending December 31, 2001.
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 2001 and 2000.
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.

MARCH 31, 2001
NOTE 3 - LEASING ACTIVITIES
The partnership leases certain properties for operation of restaurants to Del
Taco, Inc. 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.
For the three months ended March 31, 2001, the five restaurants operated by Del
Taco, for which the partnership is the lessor, had combined, unaudited sales of
$1,014,558 and net income of $56,284 as compared to $928,063 and $43,758,
respectively, for the corresponding period in 2000. Net income by restaurant
includes charges for general and administrative expenses incurred in connection
with supervision of restaurant operations and interest expense. For the three
months ended March 31, 2001, the one restaurant operated by a Del Taco
franchisee, for which the partnership is the lessor, had unaudited sales of
$215,866 as compared with $190,697 during the same period in 2000.
For the three months ended March 31, 2001, the Elkhorn Boulevard restaurant in
Sacramento, California reported net income of $3,306 as compared to a net loss
of $3,816 for the corresponding period in 2000.
NOTE 4 - TRANSACTIONS WITH DEL TACO
The receivable from General Partner consists primarily of rent accrued for the
month of March. The March rent receivable was collected on April 10, 2001.
Del Taco, Inc. serves in the capacity of general partner in other partnerships
which are engaged in the business of operating restaurants, and three other
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 April 16, 2001, a distribution to the limited partners of $132,480, or
approximately $15.14 per limited partnership unit, was approved. Such
distribution was paid on April 18, 2001. The General Partner also received a
distribution of $1,338 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 partnership offered limited partnership units for sale between March 1983
and March 1984. 15% of the $4.375 million raised through sale of limited
partnership units was used to pay commissions to brokers and to reimburse the
General Partner for offering costs incurred. Approximately $4 million of the
remaining funds were used to acquire sites and build six restaurants.
The six restaurants leased to Del Taco make up almost all of the income
producing assets of the partnership. Therefore, the business of the partnership
is almost entirely dependent on the success of the Del Taco trade name
restaurants that lease the properties. The success of the restaurants is
dependent on a large variety of factors, including, but not limited to, consumer
demand and preference for fast food, in general, and for Mexican-American food
in particular.
Results of Operations
The partnership owns six properties that are under long-term lease to Del Taco
for restaurant operations (Del Taco, in turn, has subleased two of the
restaurants to Del Taco franchisees, one of which is affiliated with Del Taco).
The following table sets forth rental revenue earned by restaurant:

-------- --------
Total $147,651 $134,251
======== ========
The partnership receives rental revenues equal to 12 percent of gross sales from
the restaurants. The partnership earned rental revenue of $147,651 during the
three month period ended March 31, 2001, which represents an increase of $13,400
from 2000. The increase in rental revenue was caused by an increase in sales at
the restaurants under lease.

OF OPERATIONS - CONTINUED
The following table breaks down general and administrative expenses by type of
expense:

====== ======
General and administrative costs increased from 2000 to 2001 due to increased
costs for printing and distribution of information to limited partners.
Net income increased by $14,355 from 2000 to 2001 due to the increase in
revenues of $14,837 which was partially offset by the $482 increase in general
and administrative expenses.
