Default 70 owner, name this wire... PLEASE!

I'm in the process of redoing the interior of my 70 454 convert with ac and don't want to cover up these wires with the new insulation and carpet before I know what they are for. The Blue/Black wires go around on both sides (dont know why they go back here to do that because they are heading up to the front on both sides...) and the Red/Black wires just end in the spare compartment with connectors on them (which are not connected to anything...).

I have pictures here to show you what I'm dealing with. Anyone know what these are for? Expecially the Red/Black one as it doesn't connect to anything ... currently. Help would be appreciated as all the electrical charts that I have don't explain these. Also, I think the car had an original alarm system (which it does not have anymore) if that is helpful.

Thanks in advance.

Blue black looks to be the door ajar wiring and the red black is the center compartment light.
