powermac 6500/225 and video

hi. i just got a powermac 6500/225 from a friend, and i want to get it up and running. i got everything ready, but i don't have a screen for it. i see it has a video port, but it's not VGA. it's some weird kind of plug. the nearest apple store is more than an hour away, and i don't have the time to get a screen or adapter from there. also, i'm not 18, so i can't get stuff off of ebay (don't have a credit card). can i put in a normal VGA card in one of the PCI slots to have video? if i can't, is there some way i could fabricate an adapter from that weird plug to VGA? what is that weird plug called?
thx in advance!
