I didn't know what the answer was so the mysterious stranger sold me the information for 1000 gold coins. It's Henry Rider Haggard and if not me and that feller are going to have to settle this the old fashion way.

Which two men (Brothers), helped design the Model T, perhaps the most important car of all time. They had a falling out with Henry Ford and went on to start their own car company. Who were these men?

Volkswagen produced a sporty model officially know as the "Type 14"
What was the name by which this particular model was more widely known?
It's not Bug or Beetle (that was the Type 1).

Feel free to do a search.

Lance Armstrong won the Tour de France 7 times but had them all taken away from him when he admitted to cheating. Four other riders have won the race five times. Name two of them.
