That Price Is 2X-ish Too High...

...also, when people tell you they've done the TIMING CHAIN, be sure to confirm that the BALANCE SHAFT CHAIN and BALANCE SHAFT CHAIN SPROCKET ON CRANKSHAFT have been replaced, along with that chain's tensioner and guides.
The weakest part of the chain system through '93 model year is the balance shaft crank sprocket -- original part's metal was too soft, and eventually, it goes, which takes out the balance shaft chain. That chain, in turn, takes out the timing chain.
Regardless, DON'T pay $6,800 for a '93 Aero. Perhaps a low-mileage '96 or '97 would be worth that, but definitely not a '93.
