Is 28.0 the standard size for C40s

    My C40 is about 2004 and came with a 28.00mm seat-post.

    Have you measured the inside with Callipers?

    I wasn't aware that they still produced the C40 and even less certain that they did it in any size other than 28.00

    I was always on the assumption that C40s and C50 were all 28.0mm. Have you checked whether the seattube has been reamed or not?
    FWIW they stopped making C40s about 7 years ago when they introduced the C50 - sounds like yours is NOS.
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..
