Yes there are a number of differences beyond paint.
One of the major functonal differences is that the CII
has an audio filter that helps with CW ops and a built
electronic keyer. Under the covers there are actually
considerable design differences between them even
though the basic IF mixing scheme is the same. From a
purely practical matter though I've never noted any
real performance differences between the Corsair and
the Corsair II, - for whatever that's worth. These
threads from a few years ago also described some of
the other differences pretty well.
