Most likely the normals are facing the wrong way for the parts of the model that look invisible to you.

Sketchup doesn't export stock colours.
Its probably exported the actual textures \ materials used but not the colours ?
Bit of a guess but likely.

Looks like you have inverted normals, the missing faces are actually there, they're just the wrong way around and you're looking through the back of them, hence why you can see outside faces on the inside through the near side, they need flipping in a modelling program.

@miltonmdq before you export anything from Sketchup you have to ensure ALL faces are facing the correct way, Sketchup as front and back faces and there is an easy way to distinguish between them :



load your model up in SU remove all textures got to styles edit the back face colour to something colourful and bright (the default choice is a very slight blue and is sometimes not very clear) you will find that your models wil have flipped faces just right click on each face and choose 'reverse face'
re apply your textures and export the model

You can do that Harry, but it means those faces are drawn and textured twice by the engine, so too much of that and it can end up clogging up resources.

@ miltonmdq
Anyway, You can notice inverted faces via render, or when you select the mesh, it is a good practice to apply a normal modifier before exporting (just talking about 3ds max).
I think cullmode like "GoTo" they are a necessary evil. What I mean is that it is not very orthodox but sometimes it is necessary, for example, the decals use it.
What Harry proposes is a solution, but as Belidos points out, it is convenient not to abuse this command.
In this particular case, the idea is to correct the normals in a 3d design program, assuming this is the problem.
