Yeah, near Prescott...

any vaguely key shaped device that fits in the hole will unlock the gas tank.

There is also a document floating around on how to make your own key for the ignition, could be a fun project and temporary fix. I can forward the information when I am at a computer.

If you can't get plates for it, take it to ITS Tile Service. They do a re-creation of it for you, legally. The way it works for us in Colorado is: they 'sell' it to someone in a state where it can re retitled, then it comes back with a valid Registration and temporary plate from that state. Then I have 30 days (it might be 90 days?) to get it to the State Patrol for a VIN verification, after which I can have it titled in my name. I have to pay Retitle Fee, Sales Tax (for the listed price, but more than $251 minimum), Ownership Tax, Road and Bridges Fee, and License Fee. About $280 here, plus the sales tax, which varies by county.

Whew... 

Is there a "sunshine" tax" yet?

That would be in Florida

It seems as though that link has been deleted from the site. I have a pdf of it that I saved I can email it to you, pm me your address..

also you can sometimes just take off the ignition and bring it to ACE and they will cut you a key for it for ~10$
