Hmm, tough one. No taking everything apart or siphoning it out, eh? 
Ok... 

1) Ice pick. Stab-stab-stab the bottom. It will drain every drop. 
2) Gun. Same method. (Might be trouble in city limits...) 
3) Open gas cap, tip car on side. 

Those are my top 3 fun ways. I bet you just MIGHT be looking for a more
non-destructive way. 

4) disconnect the warm up regulator and jumper the fuel pump. Let it run
the fuel into a container.
5) Run the motor. (Drive the car. round da blok ya goez.... where ya
stops.... nobody knows.....) 

Go with that kid.
