I always felt like Carter was more conservative than Ford.

I don’t know what to say other than he wasn’t...
The fact that he carried the former Confederacy? Shows he at least had conservative appeal.

Not necessarily.  That 1) assumes states’ politics are static over decades and 2) assumes Carter won the most conservative Southern voters.  Was Clinton more conservative than Dole just because he won WV, Trump’s best state?
No because Clinton lost most of the former Confederacy. Carter carried every single Confederate state except for Virginia.
