Hi Justin,

There are some paradigms in the Old Norse Online course [
http://www.utexas.edu/cola/centers/lrc/eieol/norol-10-X.html#Nor10_GP47
], but they avoid reconstructions too, so there might not be any more
information here than you have already. There are a lot of
reconstructed paradigms for Proto-Norse, Germanic and Indo-European in
Fernández Álvarez: Antiguo Islandés: Historia y lengua. You might find
something of use in the archives of this Yahoo group [
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/Theudiskon/ ], especially Konrad's
posts. He's done a lot of research into this.

Other books that might be of use to you:

Joseph B. Voyles: Early Germanic Grammar: Pre-, Proto-, and
Post-Germanic Languages

Hans Frode Nielsen: The Early Runic Language of Scandinavia.

Alexander Jóhanesson: Frumnorræn málfræði [
http://www.google.co.uk/books?id=EuqOIgAACAAJ&dq=alexander+m%C3%A1lfr%C3%A6%C3%B0i
]. I'm not sure about the availability of this one; it might be hard
to track down...
