yeah, at least you can easily fit mudguards to it.
assuming its got horizontal ends and a freewheel hub (not cassette), the cheapest way is: take the freewheel off and fit fixed sprocket, respace and redish rear wheel to get a good chainline, cost: under a tenner, free if you can blag a sprocket. But don't do it this way if you want to take the rear brake off or do loads of leg braking and skidstops.
