         SECTION 302 OF THE SARBANES-OXLEY ACT OF 2002 (18 U.S.C. 1350)
         --------------------------------------------------------------

I, Robert V. Cuddihy, Jr., certify that:

1. I have reviewed this Annual Report on Form 10-K of National Auto Credit,
Inc.;

2. Based on my knowledge, this Annual Report does not contain any untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make
the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which such statements
were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this Annual
Report;

3. Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial
information included in this Annual Report, fairly present in all material
respects the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the
registrant as of, and for, the periods presented in this Annual Report;

4. The registrant's other certifying officers and I are responsible for
establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in
Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the registrant and have:

     (a) designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such
     disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under our supervision, to
     ensure that material information related to the registrant, including its
     consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to us by others within those
     entities, particularly during the period in which this Annual Report is
     being prepared;

     (b) intentionally omitted;

     (c) evaluated the effectiveness of the registrant's disclosure controls and
     procedures and presented in this report our conclusions about the
     effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of
     the period covered by this Annual Report based on such evaluation;

     (d) disclosed in this report any change in the registrant's internal
     control over financial reporting that occurred during the registrant's most
     recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely
     to materially affect, the registrant's internal control over financial
     reporting;

5. The registrant's other certifying officers and I have disclosed, based on our
most recent evaluation, to the registrant's auditors and the audit committee of
the registrant's Board of Directors (or persons performing the equivalent
function):

     (a) all significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or
     operation of internal control over financial reporting which are reasonably
     likely to adversely affect the registrant's ability to record, process,
     summarize and report financial information; and (b) any fraud, whether or
     not material, that involves management or other employees who have
     significant role in the registrant's internal controls over financial
     reporting.
