Multi-part SEA archive missing parts

So i'm going through a 13 year old set of backup floppies where I used stuffit to split the backup into 1.4mb parts.. Trouble is, some of the disks are bad... I'm missing random parts throughout the collection starting with #3. Anyone know how I can try extracting the contents of these archives despite the missing disks? Obviously I'll have chunks of incomplete data and whatnot...

Write your own error-ignoring decompressor?

I don't know of any program which will accept missing pieces of an archive. What you might be able to do is get a partial output of some files up to the missing piece, then force-quite the program and hope that those files successfully output don't get discarded.
