Good looking bike as is, but not a good candidate for single speed conversion.

I'll echo what others have said, "learn to use/depend on your front brake".

The bike just needs some TLC. If it has 6 year old cables and rubber, it's time to replace them. Check the chain for wear and re-grease the bearings. Did I mention that it's a good looking bike?
