97 s90 no transponder key

Hey guys!
Bit of drama for me at the moment, a friend of mine while going through a tough time left his Volvo S90 at my place. He had to move state and decided to give me his car. Being behind on bills his landlord actually kept his Volvo key and possessions before he could give it to me.
It’s probably the nicest gift one could receive and I’m really happy to bring the car to it’s former glory and re do some of it’s paintwork. I decided after calling Volvo and them telling me to just cut a new key because the car does not have a transponder to take the barrel to a locksmith. However the car refuses to turn over and 100% has a immobiliser.
The cost of a new key almost defeats the purpose of my friends gift as he wanted me to restore it to its former glory and money could be spent elsewhere on the project.
I trust some people could help me on this forum as I’ve now developed a soft spot for the car and would really like to get it going. I imagine most bypass threads would be deleted for safety of everyone’s cars so I started a new thread that could be removed after I receive some help.
The year model is 97 if that helps some of you wizards determine the best course of action.
