When you select the model of car and the metal, you need to return how many bars fit in the area.
It will then take the amount of total bars that can fit and then multiply that by .33. This in turn is multiplied by the weight of the metal (I set that as part of an array) and the result is subtracted from 1800. If that result is < 0, it will respond "You did not get away" else it respond "you got away!"
I know this code is far from done but I want to see if I am going the right direction.

In <i>The Italian Job</i>, theives were able to steal bars of gold by loading them into Mini Coopers and driving away.<p>
