So then what would you call a 220b which is a 220Sb minus chome and wood finishings... Is it just 220?

Depends on what you are trying to communicate. The b was used in the factory to distiguish between the Pontons and the Fintails. Fintail design started in the mid- fifties so there would have been confusion in the factory with 220S meaning two different things.
Murray, you can say 220b if you're trying to order some parts or be really specific about the car. A code language that only fellow MB fans would understand.
