Converted to a single seat probably means that the controls were 
modified to have the pilot setting in the middle instead of to one side.

I think that "light sport" requires the landing gear be 
"fixed".  These may be locked in the down position but even so they 
are not as light or aerodynamic as a good fared fixed gear.  The gear 
locked down or not would have nothing to do with stall speed.  The 
other requirement to be met are max speed and stall speed.  If it 
meets all requirements it could be flown under the "light sport" rules.
