240 battery draining when ignition is off 200 1985

Bricksters,

RE: 245, 1985, normal aspiration. Problem: Battery goes dead after sitting for eight hours with ignition off.

What could be draining the battery when the ignition is off? What process should I use to test for electrical drain?

I already checked some obvious things like the interior lights and the glove box light.

The car runs fine once it is started.

Thanks,
