headlights and interior lights only work wth key in run

I just bought a 86 IROC, 305 TPI. One weird little problem. If the key is off, headlights, interior lights, and radio do not work. I know, the radio shouldn't, but its the stock radio where you press the volume **** and it will show the time with the car off. That doesn't work. And its at 1:00 when the car starts, every time. However, everything works with the key in run.

The car once had an alarm but it was removed. So I'm guessing someone spliced the wrong wires together somewhere. Any other ideas?
