Difference between SWB and LWB trailing arms

Getting a chance to go through a bunch of parts that have been in storage for a long time and found some sets of trailing arms. 2 sets are for a LWB car, one set I am keeping for my 69 coupe and another set I am going to sell but I also have another set that are quite a bit shorter in the length of the arm. I am assuming that these are short wheelbase arms, am I right? If that is what they are, I will sell these as well as I don't have any need for them Any idea what they are worth, just the arms, nothing else, no hubs, axle or backing plates.

Thanks in advance for the help

There is also a 'short' version of the LWB arm which was fitted to some of the later production 2.7 Carrera 2.7 RS models.

The SWB arms look totally different in the area of the bearing hub and the 'eye' end that holds the bush is a separate forging that again looks completely different to the LWB part.

It is kind of hard to ID your parts without pictures, here are some pics of rear trailing arms out of my extensive pile of extra trailing arms.
Pic # 1 is a 72/73 trailing arm
Pic # 2 is a 68 trailing arm (I refuse to use the SWB/LWB BS description)
Pic # 3 is a 69 thru 71 trailing arm.
