Well your original post made money seem like the issue for the conversion. Frankly fixing the existing drivetrain is cheaper.
Trust me though, I'm more offended that you have a Marvin the Martian avatar and didn't react to my Illudium Q36 Explosive Space Modulator line.
Read this - and then read it again (I know it was posted, but Sheldon's words carry more weight to me than any religious text).

That link to sheldon brown's site has things covered as far as the conversion. I've never built or ridden a fixie (Sort of want to try, but have better things to build) but it seems like a new chain, new rear wheel with track hub/cog/lock ring, possible new bottom bracket to get the chain line straight, and some new crank bolts to mount a single chain ring and you should be good.
Also - pretty, PRETTY please keep the brakes installed.
