Can someone tell me if this would be a good first fixie?

Hey guys,
I know how much everyone hates threads like this, but believe me, I HAVE done a decent amount of researching/searching before posting this.

While I would really like something like a Mercier Kilo TT, even that unfortunately is a bit out of my budget so i've been looking at some cheaper conversions on craigslist and such.

Which has lead me to this bike. Pretty much has all the info in the ad, and i'm assuming the frame is just some old schwinn from who knows when.

What do you guys think of that? Any better suggestions? I was also looking at the mongoose cachet (yes, I know what you all think of that... but can't beat the price) but I think the ~55cm frame will be too large for me.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
