Converting a solid object to a sheet metal object?
this is the tool you would use, but in this case, this is not a valid sheet metal design
This design is simple enough that I would probably re-create it using sheet metal commands. You could also start with just Body1, and add the tabs as Flanges:

As @jeff_strater mentioned this component is a very simple one and could probably be modeled in sheet metal quicker than converting it. Since you wanted it converted, I have gone through the process as I see it in a Screencast. Model is attached.
