Draft:
The latest publicly available version of the C99 standard is the combined C99 + TC1 + TC2 + TC3, WG14 N1256, dated 2007-09-07. This is a WG14 working paper, but it reflects the consolidated standard at the time of issue.

Working draft for the original (i.e. pre-corrigenda) C99: http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n843.htm (HTML) and http://www.dkuug.dk/JTC1/SC22/WG14/www/docs/n843.pdf (PDF). Note that there were two later working drafts: N869 and N878, but they seem to have been removed from the WG14 website, so this is the latest one available.

Difference between Standards
C90 vs C89
Almost the same as ANSI X3.159-198 (C89) except for the frontmatter and section numbering. There is at least one textual difference in section 6.5.7 (previously 3.5.7), where “a list” became “a brace-enclosed list”. Note that the conversion between ANSI and ISO/IEC Standard is seen inside this document, the document refers to its name as “ANSI/ISO: 9899/99” although this isn’t the right name of the later made standard of it, the right name is “ISO/IEC 9899:1990”
